Overview
This week I created a 96 second video promoting the start of the preseason (August 15th) for our VMSL premier division soccer team. the video is intended for Instagram and does have more information about the dates and level required in the description.
Process
First I started by brainstorming some ideas for a promotional videos. I decided to promote our soccer team that recently enrolled in the VMSL premier division, which is the highest level of armature soccer in Vancouver. I created a story board and sketched out the main senses in my video.


The video was going to be filmed in POV from a players prospective. I set up a time with my friend and owner of FASA, and we were able to film the shots during one of his 1 v 1 sessions. After that I uploaded the footage from my Canon VIXIA camcorder onto my PC and put the video together using Windows Photos. I found it frustrating that it had no transition options, but I worked with what I had, adding music and trimming clips.
Critique
I shared the video in my groups Whats App group. Unfortunately everyone was sleeping, except for mike, who gave me positive reviews and recommended that I add more stop action shot, as well as using better software for the final portfolio edit.

Hi Riad! I like how you created the video from the player’s point of view. Very creative! Your message was clear and definitely a different take on informing your viewers about the pre-season. Great job!

Hey Riad,
Great video! I liked the choice of the background music and how the video focused on the owner of FASA. He has a very entertaining attitude and along with the background music, it kept my attention on the video. The ending was also great, the first person perspective and the deep breath really reminded me of the mixture of nervous, anxious and excited feelings I would have whenever I tried out for a sports team.
